Not sure I have the time, but I'd love to try...
for just plain silly, how about little Chick-type tracks dealing with something like the Knights Templar, or any other spooky conspiracy-cult? Some of the more preposterous trumped up conspiracy texts, like the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion," are rife for mockery. Although that latter example is a bit politically charged right now.
Nonetheless, the idea of housewife Debbie having a relationship crisis, resolved by the helping (but shadowy) hand of the Elders, who in the form of a friendly Rabbi teach how to properly withold sex from and otherwise torment her husband. (The scary thing is, that little vignette WAS based on something in PotEoZ).
Or pick out a particularly obscure religion--my money is already on the Aztecs--with particular bloody and alien practices:
Little Jimmy learns from his father and mother that the only right thing to do is to cut out the heart of a captive stranger, to feed the sun and thus keep the earth from being devoured by the stars...all done in that kind of Donna Reed, 50s sitcom look (Dad has a pipe and sweater vest, Little Jimmy a beanie, etc.).
Oh Shit...Cthullu Mythos!!! Lovecraft meets Chick Comics. 
For more secular material, consider parodying situationist comics...perhaps do a capitalist equivalent...or an absolute monarchist equivalent. And for some reason I really like the idea of a didactic comic based upon the ideas of Yukio Mishima. Or Mao Zedong.
And Real Men love Shiva AND Shakti.
